Is that right?
Maybe if you look a certain way that’s socially acceptable to them. If you aren’t (white, Asian) you’ll get temporary work that pays like shit, and companies can not hire you because they don’t like that you’re not Japanese with no legal or social protections to aide you. Even shit jobs have social requirements. That’s really the biggest problem.
You are a deeply unpleasant person to talk to, I don’t believe you’re right about anything that “we talked about” because the only real conversation we had was me telling you I have no interest in talking with you. Is this clear enough for you?
I’m so very confused; what conversation, wrong about what? I don’t remember ever engaging in a conversation with someone who speaks in riddles. Do you always press those who don’t want anything to do with you for interaction? You should watch that- it’s a very caustic trait. When someone no longer wishes to talk to you; you should respect that.
How should I know that I had any, and how can you tell? It’s not like there are symptoms; or even a thermometer to gauge if one has had one. Some must be doing it for the first time.
The way I see it, it’s a reason to be kinder to yourself for things you are prone to do, or behaviors you’re not fond of. Maybe you can “train” yourself to be different, but you aren’t who put it there and shouldn’t judge yourself for the person you are.
I’m glad I was able to clear it up! I actually love talking philosophy; so thank you for giving me a chance to do that today.
I agree with you, but the memories you keep at the forefront aren’t your choice either. You tend to remember the negative moments more vividly because your brain is trying to protect you from experiencing it again. A useful tactic in times past, but not so much anymore.
I’m not saying you’re not you- you are. There is a you apart from your body and mind, but it is much much less than people would like to realize. It’s more like you’re a ghost in the machine. You think you’re the driver but you’re really just the passenger that gets to say where to stop every so often, but not consistently.
Well, you aren’t. You didn’t chose most things about yourself, you just think you did as to not cause existential crisis. Your favorite foods, your sexuality, what you think is funny, what smells like perfume and what smells like poop; all has very little to do with anything you consciously chose.
Most of the things I mentioned are decided before you’re born.
Half a foot, and if you feel as if I’m not going to play in the snow because I’m an “adult” you’ve another thing coming.
Expectations are for the people who keep them, if you look around there isn’t anyone imposing them.
Honestly I wish you could have the snow we’re about to get because it’s backbreaking to have to shovel it; but you are only a train away my friend. Come down and rub all sorts of body parts with tourists that have apparently never been outside, and go see the big ass tree on 5th avenue.
Please tell us what it IS then, since maybe you’ve gone to the other side and made it back in any significant way like exactly no one in this world has.
You aren’t your brain, your brain and body are completely apart from you and don’t care what you’d like. If you were your brain you could stop beating your heart at will, stop digesting, stop or start functions that you are in control of. You’re not in control of anything; not even what you are seeing. Just your perspective and what you make of those experiences.
Also, the change in behavior is also mostly up to your body and brain; not you. If you’re hungry, your judgement is clouded and skews towards the negative, not because that is your want.
Is that right? Maybe if you look a certain way that’s socially acceptable to them.
